ESRA Activities What's has been happening? Lockdown plan ESRA will stay open during lockdown, but with some significant changes to the service. This is consistent with government regulations. Here are the details: ESRA Lockdown Plan Phone calls ESRA staff members have spent most of lockdown calling and checking in with clients. Our Hastings Hub has since re-opened for 3 days a week, Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays, 10am till 2pm. Activity packs We have sent out over 150 activity packs to our clients. This is to stimulate creativity and to combat boredom in lockdown. These have been very well received and clients have sent us pics of their handiwork. Zoom meetings We are hosting online coffee mornings via Zoom. These have been successful beyond our expectations and this is something we want to build on - not just in lockdown, but later on when life gets back to normal. Current schedule is as follows: Mondays - coffee morning at 10:30am Wednesdays - evening support group - 07:00pm Fridays - coffee morning at 10:30am How to take part If you are an ESRA client and are interested in taking part, please join one of these two private Facebook groups.
